1Ⅲ Through her living in Christ's ascension as the new creation in resurrection, Christ's transformed bride becomes a garden for Christ's private enjoyment (S.S. 4:12-16).
2Ⅳ When the overcoming lover of Christ becomes one with God to be God's dwelling place, in the eyes of God she is as beautiful as Tirzah and as lovely as Jerusalem; however, to the enemy she is as terrible as an army with banners (6:4, 10):
3A The lover of Christ is beautiful and comely before the Lord, as solid as the heavenly city and as serene as the sanctuary; at the same time, she displays the glory of her victory before the enemy and the world (v. 4):
41 Weapons are the most important thing to an army in battle, but unfurled banners, signifying the glory of victory, are the most important thing in victory (Exo. 17:15).
82 The overcoming lover of Christ not only has a future that is full of hope and a life that is absolutely heavenly, but she also is a victor who constantly triumphs in her victory (S.S. 3:7-8).
